Her MAJEsry has been somewhat more at ease since Monday evening. On the prece - ding Friday, after having eaten a tolerable hearty dinner, she was attacked with one of those violent spasmodic affections in the stomach, which form so alarming a !etiture in her indisposition, and she remained par tially under its influence during the greater part of the three t,,llowing days. On the Monday evening she was again somewhat better, and has continued, since that time, rather improving in health than otherwise, at least comp4ratively with her ge neral slate for the last three weeks; and these fa- Vo w able appearances induced hia Royal Highness pi , iNcEREGENT to make his long-expected trip to the I S ,vilion. tier Majesty's disorder, however, has several tittles assumed an appearance of almost entire abatement, but has constantly returned with the greater violence, and it is therefore to be feared her present improvement may he but tran sient. The house in which her Majesty resides is that usually called " The Prince's old house," (oti ng the one in which the Prince Regent spent the early part of his youth); and, independently of its unfitness for a Royal residence, in point of accommodation, it is, in comtlion with the whole neighbourhood of Kew, most disadvantageously situated for invalids labouring tinder that de scription of complaint with which her MA= JESTY is afflicted. On this account it ii, as well as from the desire which her MAJESTY may have expressed to see the KING, that her removal to iVindsor has been contemplated. We do not learn, however, that ally preparations are yet making for that purpose."—(f/erald.) AMERICAN PAPERS. We have received letters and papers from Phi adelphia and Washington, of the 7th and 8(h PHILADELPHIA, JULY 8 —Don O u j s has pro tested against the capture of Pensacola : it is said to.contain a great variety of amusing arguments. Mr. Quincy Adams is said to be drawing up a Manifesto, explaining to all the world the pacific policy of the invasion of Florida. It is said that it will be s. , perior, as a composition, to the cele brated M oiitesto of the Court of Great Britain, drawn up by Gibbon, against France. Among Other theme- yet the new Manifesto, it is said that t e spoliation. of Spain will be avowedly aban doned, in tudor to prove that the war upon Flo rida is a In, re pacific operation of diplomacy. Among other proposit,ons to be explained in the Manifesto is the following, which is a new species, and kind of counter-demonstration to the celebrated non sequitur of the memorable Judge Chase. It is %hewn first, that the attack upon Amelia Island was an act of devotion to the cause of liberty and independence ; and in the second place, that the takine of Pensacola, as war was not authorised by Congress, must be an act of amity and good faith towards Spain, on the part 1 of the Executive. to of the messengers who brought dispatches to Don Oois last week, was not from Pensacola, hut from Spain, by the route of Bourdeaux. The nature of his dispatches is only guessed at. BALTIMORE, JULY 7.—The Spanish Minister, Don Onis, has removed from the pasture-fields of Bristol, above Philadelphia, and this morning ar rived in this City, on his way to Washington. The following is an important communication relative to our West India Trade ; it is a letter ft um the Treasury Department at Washington, addressed to Mr. Baker, the British Consul- General : " TREASURY DEPARTMENT. " TO ANT. ST. JOHN BAKER, E 61.. WASHINGTON.. Comptroller's-Office, June 2.5, 1818. " Stll,—l have attentively considered the question pro pounded in the inclosed documents, which were a few days since presetftedlo me under your direction. " Ist. Whether .a Bermudian vessel will he allowed to bring West -India produce to the United States from Ber muda, which had been imported into that place from some other possession of his Britannic Majesty -in the Vest Indies. " 2d. Whether. according to the Navigation Act of the United States, which is to take effect sirs the Ist of October next, a vessel owned in Bermuda cars he allowed to enter the United States, and discharge a cargo which had heen laden on board in the West Indies, brought to Bermuda, unladen there, and again taken o❑ hoard. " As applicable to the first question, I have to observe, that the ports of St. George and Hamilton, in the island of Bermuda, are considered open to the vessels of the United States, according to the ordinary laws of navigation and trade. A British vessel, therefore, which was cleared out, whose cargo was actually laden, and whose voyage commenc ed at either of the said ports of St. George Or Hamilton, may enter and discharge her cargo. in a port of the United States, with this express understanding, however, that rib part of such cargo was brought in the same vessel to the island of Ber muda ft um one of his Britannic Majesty's possession s closed to the vessels of the 11►nted Stares. And moreover, that such vessel is not employed in the transportation of goods to that islandlrom British colonial ports, which were closed against the vessels owned bvcitizens of the United States. " With respect to the second question, I have to observe, that according to the provision of the Act., a British vessel sailing from a port, not open to American vessels, and enter ing a port that is open, unloading there, taking the same, or some other cargo on board, and clearing thence to the United States, cannot he admitted to entry. " This kind of trade, heretofore considered a lucrative one, is declared by the Act to he a direct trade from the excluthil port, and is in express terms prohibited. I . ant, &c. •' J. ANDERSON, Comptroller." (Signed) LAW.—The proceeding,' in the Court of Chan cery yesterday were .of no public interest what ever. The LORD CHANCELLOR came into Court soon after nine o'clock, and said, that before the business of the day was gone into, he wished it to be understood, That when a cause was called on, and the Counsel and Solicitors on both sides were not present, he would, without the slightest hesitation, strike the cause out. He would_ wait for no man; for, attacked as he was on account of his delays, he would ask how could lie possibly ( 1 0 wh erir k., when he was not attended to by those who ought to do so ?

HAYMARKET.—The revival of The Americans at the English Opera-house has been followed by that of The Africans at this theatre. The play is a work of Mr. COLIVIAN, and does credit to his genius. The composition is constructed with the skill of a master, and is altogether an ad mirable specimen of the tragi-comic. The cha racters are drawn with strength, and well discri minated, particularly those of the three brothers, one of whom is ferociously bitter, another plain tive and tender, and the third humourously sar castic, hut all animated by the highest degree of filial affection. There is also another striking contrast between the solemn dignity and parental tenderness of a native Priest, and the ludicrous hu mours of Henry Augustus Mug,the.lvory Turner, from Snow-hill. The lanpage of the piece is vigorous, and the sentiments are such as ought always to ani- Mite mankind. The story excites a deep interest, and is rendered much more so by the inroads of an enemy, the destruction of a town, with all the attendant 'horrors, and at length with the safety of the characters chiefly distressed, and the final hap piness of all. The piece was altogether so well performed, that, in addition to its intrinsic merits, we do not wonder that its success last night should have induced the Manager to announce it for repetition this day and to-morrow. ‘VAIIDIC, the new Actor, lost nothing of leis reputation in Selico ; CONNOR was very spirited, and ma "ni"fested great feeling in Torribal ; and JONES gave all the sensibility and all the humuur that filadiboo demanded. FOOTB was also very re spectable in Faralho. Miss E. BLANCHARD was tender and affecting in Berissa ; and Mrs. CONNOR - not less so in Darina. As to LISTON, in the ludi crous mixture of an Ivory Turner and a Minister of State, he did what he pleased with the risible muscles of his audience. BARNARD acquitted him self well in the African Monarch, and the whole was very warmly applauded by a numerous and an attentive audience. DUBLIN, AUG. I.—NESS STEPHENS contin►►es to attract overflowing honses To her Polly, on Thursday, there was the most crowded Theatre we recollect to have seen for many years. Nothing could exceed the applause whiCh her admirable execution of the popular airs belonging to this character excit.l. She plays Rosetta, in Lore in a Village,,no Monday evening, by command of his Ekcellency the LORD LIEUTENANT and Coun tess TALBOT. IMMORAL NUISANCR.-6 0 Tuesday evening a large assemblage of persons rook place in Catherine- Street, Strand, for upwards of four hours, nearly preventing the passing of canna* s, &c Ir seems that a private Theatre is there situated, kito , vn by the name of the MINOR TIIEATRE, it! Which apprentice boys and gills idle away the time of their masters and mistresses, to the injury of their morals, and the great annoyance of tie neigh bourhood. On the evening mentioned, a per formance took place, when, as is said to be tisoal, more tickets were issued than the building could possibly contain. Those who were so for tunate as to arrive early procured seats, 'heaving those who did not take that precaution destitute of accommodation. The number thus disap pointed was great, and to prevent their admission all the entrances were made fast, which served to irritate the rabble. A violent attack on the doors took place with stones, which were ready to the assailants' hands, in consequence of the paviors being at work in the street, accompanied by loud shouts, and which cootinoed at intervals till past 12 o'clock. Several boxing matches occurred, a' which the faithful guardians of the night looked on with a cool - and determined composure, appa rently considering it as improper to lived : ere. It is perhaps a question whether such meetings are not cognizable by the Magistates ; for although no money, we understand, is paid for admission, yet eaeh individual performer buys a certain num ber of tickets of . the man who hires the house for the night, and who - therefore derives a pecuniary advantage. At any rate, it is time that 'scone memores should be adopted for 'rooting out these hot-beds of vice, where there can be little doubt that many virtuous minds have been corrupted and led step by step to the commission of crimes, at which they would have revolted., but for the temptation of private Theatres. The Society for the Suppression of Vicehave done „much service to the public, in detecting and bringing to punish ment many notorious offenders against morality ; and it is to be hoped that they will not neglect such places aS those we allude to. We have heard that not many months since the Police succeeded in apprehending in one of these sihlts of iniquity a person charged with a robbery, who had for some time eluded their vigilance. The distress suffered by many respectable families whose chil dren follow such a vagrant life has been great, and the reputation of many virtuous females blast ed for ever by the artifices of these wretched pre tenders to theatrical skill. His E ,xcellency E•ttl TALISOT intends visiting Balinaske at the October fair, and several Eng lish farmers are expected to wake their apl►ear ance there on that account.

The stove of the caboose has the ' maker's name upon it, " Oliver, 286, Wapping." The timber, deals, &c. which remained on deck and below, are dischargiqg. The sailors report, that a considerable quantity of square timber was floating in all directions, near the wreck, when they boarded her; also the long•boat, full of water, with the name "Thos.

We subjoin the following extracts from other Papers, in order to gratify curiosity, or rather to obviate all doubts on the subject ; but we be- lieve that our account f the substance of the confession of the Culprit, which we gave from authority,will be found to be the most correct : " The Kentish Gazelle, in its account of the last too:wlts of this wretched man, varies in sonic particulars from the other accounts we have seen, with respect to the confes sions made by him. After saying that he had ' his suspi cions,' he is stated to have added, know of the robbery, and partook of the plunder.' Mr. Bird's son, it is farther stated, visited him in his cell, after he had taken the Sacra ment, and put the same question to him as Mr. Rudge did— ' Ito yon know who did this deed 1"fo which Hussey replied, I did not see them do it.' When Mr. Rudge had finished praying with him on the scaffold, it appears that he again asked Hussey if he was innocent of the murder? to which he replied Yes, I am." And when the Rev. Gentle man reascended the scaffold a second time, at the request of Hussey, it is said that Hussey, in a low voice, begged it to be understood, that he considered his to he a righteous judg ment ; that lie was eqaally guilty in point of law but not the murderer.' " , "The following is from The It r aidshne,Gagett,, received. yesterday morning, the conductors of which • pledge them selves for the correctness of the statement' thus publicly made : ' A short time previous to leaving the prison, (he (Hussey) promised the Reverend Gentleman (Mr. Rudge) that he would, at the place of execution, answer, ' yes' or no' to the question' respecting the murders; • do you know who did this deed?' He said, he was in the house after the murders were perpetrated; he committcd-the robbery, but he did not commit the murders. He also acknowledged that the gaiters found in his box were in the house, and were sprinkled with, the blood of the victims, as he walked over the bodies. Mr_ Bird, son of the deceased Mr. Bird, also visited him in the cell ; and, in answer to a question from that gentleman, he said, ' I did nut see them do it.' " THE LATE MR. COBB. The following is the inscription on the tomb of the late Jamus Coss, Esq. which we feel assured will be read with interest by those who know how to appreciate departed worth:: — Sacred to the memory of JAMES Conn, Esq. late Secretary of the Slott. East India Company, which important situation he filled with disting - nished ability, integrity, and zeal. His moral acid social character was marked by the tenderest sympathy for human sufferings, and the most benevolent ex— ertions for its relief. To the grace: of an accomplished mind, he united the most endearing virtues. He gladdtned life by the charm of his manners, and adorned it by his example.
